A pleasantly decorated room perched on a rooftop where you can access the covered terrace and indulge in the urban landscape of Sathorn as you meditate on the stark contrasts between rich an poor with your drink of choice and let the epic rainfalls of Bangkok remind you there is a tropical jungle lurking here and there.
A very quiet place, where you could easily think you weren't in a busy city if it wasn't for the high rises in the far distance. The house locates in a humble popular neighborhood where you can find from roasts to steam rice and fresh noodles, plenty of vegetables, fruits and, of course, the inevitable 7-elevens (two in less than a 100 meters). Next to the room there's a kitchenette (with a view!) if you miss some home cooking. Besides, it's an easy walk to both BTS stations of Saphan Taksin or Surasak. However, if you're not the walking type, there are plenty of bikers around ready to take you away or you just Grab yourself out of there.
The hosts are gentle and easygoing and well connected with the local underground art scene which is a plus for those who look for more in Bangkok than just the usual touristy stuff. The only downside is the water pressure in the toilet but i'm sure Surat will eventually get his pipes right. Bottom line, I felt right home and that's what really matters, right?
